- the augmented reality data decryption module 302 may be configured to access these databases for implementing a method for decrypting data to be displayed on an augmented reality display device in near-real-time based on a determination that a user is authorized to access the data.
- the first client device 208 ( 1 ) may be, for example, a smart phone. Of course, the first client device 208 ( 1 ) may be any additional device described herein.
- the second client device 208 ( 2 ) may be, for example, a personal computer (PC). Of course, the second client device 208 ( 2 ) may also be any additional device described herein.
- a client device 208 may include an optical head-mounted display device that is designed in the shape of eyeglasses.
- the process may be executed via the communication network(s) 210 , which may comprise plural networks as described above.
- the first client device 208 ( 1 ) and the second client device 208 ( 2 ) may communicate with the ARDD device 202 via broadband or cellular communication.
- these embodiments are merely exemplary and are not limiting or exhaustive.
- the augmented reality data decryption module 302 executes a process for decrypting data to be displayed on an augmented reality display device in near-real-time based on a determination that a user is authorized to access the data.
- An exemplary process for decrypting data to be displayed on an augmented reality display device in near-real-time based on a determination that a user is authorized to access the data is generally indicated at flowchart 400 in FIG. 4 .
- biometric data that relates to the user is obtained, and at step S 404 , the biometric data is used to identify the user.
- the biometric data may be obtained by performing any one or more of scanning a retina of the user, recording voice data that is provided by the user, and/or obtaining fingerprint data that is provided by the user.
- a voice recognition technique may be used to identify the user.
- the augmented reality data decryption module 302 retrieves access rights information that relates to the user.
- the access rights information is stored in access management database 206 ( 1 ) and includes security-related information that indicates whether a particular user is authorized to access certain information.
- encrypted content is received by the augmented reality data decryption module 302 .
- the encrypted content includes at least one of an encrypted document, an encrypted image, and encrypted streaming video data.
- the augmented reality data decryption module 302 makes a determination as to whether the user is authorized to access the encrypted content.
- the encrypted content includes coded information, such as, for example, a scannable bar code and/or a Quick Response (QR) code, and the augmented reality data decryption module 302 reads the coded information and then uses this information in conjunction with the access rights information retrieved in step S 406 to determine whether the user is authorized to access the content. If a determination is made that the user is not authorized (i.e., “No” result of step S 410 ), then the method 400 ends, and the content is not decrypted and not displayed to the user.
- coded information such as, for example, a scannable bar code and/or a Quick Response (QR) code
- QR Quick Response
- the augmented reality data decryption module 302 accesses a decryption key that is usable for decrypting the content.
- the decryption key may be stored in the document and source system data repository 206 ( 2 ).
- step S 414 the encrypted content is decrypted by the augmented reality data decryption module 302 , and then at step S 416 , the content is displayed on the augmented reality display device.
- FIG. 5 is a block diagram 500 that illustrates an interaction between an augmented reality display device 508 and a decryption of encrypted data 514 to be displayed thereon, according to an exemplary embodiment.
- the augmented reality display device 508 may be implemented as an optical head-mounted display device that is designed in the shape of eyeglasses, and may include an integrated circuit that has a processor that performs the functions of the augmented reality data decryption module 302 as described above.
- the augmented reality display device 508 may be in communication with an access management & roles, PI levels, and entitlements component 502 that is similar to the access management database 206 ( 1 ); a document or source system component 504 that is similar to the document and source system data repository 206 ( 2 ); and an encryption/decryption component 506 that may store one or more encryption algorithms and one or more decryption keys.
- the augmented reality display device 508 may be configured to perform a retinal scan with respect to the eyes of the user in order to obtain identification information, and then to use information that is stored in the access management & roles, PI levels, and entitlements component 502 to process the identification information obtained from the retinal scan to authenticate the user.
- the encrypted content 514 may include a scannable QR code 512 , and the processor that is embedded in the augmented reality display device 508 may scan the QR code in order to obtain information that is usable for determining whether the user of the augmented reality display device 508 is authorized to access the encrypted content.
- the embedded processor may then use this information in conjunction with user-specific access rights information that is retrieved from the access management component 502 to make this determination, and then, if a positive determination is made, a decryption key may be retrieved from the encryption/decryption component 506 .
- the encrypted content is then decrypted and displayed to the user, as illustrated at item 510 .
- an optimized process for decrypting data to be displayed on an augmented reality display device in near-real-time based on a determination that a user is authorized to access the data is provided.
